What is the MAI Programme?

The programme aims to develop future Māori arts managers, professionals and producers, to support the Māori arts infrastructure, and establish pathways for emerging Māori who wish to embark on a career in the arts. 
We are now inviting expressions of interest from organisations that are able to provide the best possible learning environment for our interns.
​

These interns are keen to build careers in arts administration and management.
​The Māori Arts Internship (MAI) Programme is supported and funded by Creative New Zealand.
